Laptop Ordered

After months of choosing, I finally settled on the HP nx7010. Ordered it today with a 1.6GHz Centrino, 512Mb, 60Gb and a WSXGA(1680×1050) screen. Hope to pick it up tomorrow or Thursday.
Other notebooks I considered:
- Dell 8600 – bigger and not that much cheaper than the HP.
- Sony Z1 – almost bought one when it looked like the HP would be too much hassle. Nice machine, but smaller screen (1400×1050) and a tad more expensive than the HP.
- 12inch Apple Powerbook – very nice machine, and on special lately, but I couldn’t do all that much ‘real’ work with it. Also, would have had to join the Church of Macintosh.
- Acer TCi371 (pdf) – small, light machine, lots of good reviews and cheap too, but only has a 12inch XGA screen.

And what about a Toshiba M35-S359 ?
I don't think we get them in Australia.
